Jing Luo, Negative Energy & Nutrients (2)

The efficacy of herbs is due to the fact that they contain in them plant minerals, vitamins, phenolic acids and phtochemicals and is not a simple herb or plant per se only. As the content of plant minerals, vitamins, phenolic acids and phtochemicals is of minute quantity, one has to consume them for a long period of time in order to see the effect however we must also bear in mind that not all herbs or plants can be used to ease the blockages of meridian. We have to conduct clinical trials in order to ascertain which herb or plant that has such capability. When a Chinese medical practitioner prescribes herbal medicine for his patient, his herbal medicines will consists of a variety of herbs and rarely uses a single herb. It is because when herbs mixed, boiled and consumed together, it will produce some synergy effect and this practice had been proven to be correct by scientist researchers. One of such instances is the finding made by the world's foremost antioxidant research scientist Dr. Lester Packer who authored a book entitled “The Antioxidant Miracle “ in which he stated that though there were many antioxidants around but the best combination of all would be vitamin C, vitamin E, glutathione, CQ 10 and lipoic acid. As these antioxidants will not only enhance the effect of other antioxidants but also in the process of removing free radicals it re-generates the used antioxidants. Synergy therefore is the key word not only in the area of antioxidants but expands to other areas as well.
